Goodbye, Metalhead.

legendary man

To whom that love metal and underground music, they might have heard the latest news about Ronnie James (Ronald James Padavona). Padavona lose his battle with stomach cancer at the age of 67 yesterday (May 16 2010). Padavona, who was born on July 10 1942 was a songwriter and also a heavy metal vocalist for Elf, Rainbow, Black Sabbath, Heaven & Hell and his own band - Dio.

Apparently, Padavona made a comeback & collaborated with Black Sabbath under Heaven & Hell's moniker for their new album The Devil You Know which was released last year April 2009 and due to Padavona's health, the band had to cancel their tour across the Europe.


May you rest in peace, metalhead \m/
